Over the last 2 weeks I have noticed a dramatic increase in back pain patients. This is due to what I call…’Binge Gardening!’ the weather as we all know has been terrible, so all gardening and manual labour outside has been put on hold. The problems that I find as a chiropractor who treats the community is that once we have a sniff of good weather for a few hours, everyone goes out and binges with the digging etc.
Please remember that gardening is a workout that needs warming up for and never forget to warm down!!

I’d never thought of warming up and warming down for gardening but it makes total sense now you’ve said it!
